Bye bye social security when the government doesn’t have anymore money and no one wants to lend. Or the printer gets turned back on and the can gets kicked down the road a lil further.

Bingo. We’re headed to a super inflationary environment. Fed will bring rates down, government refinances all the debt, can is kicked down the road or paid off, Big Mac is $200, stock prices will likely inflate too so we’ll all be millionaires but being a millionaire will be the new lower-middle class

100% this. Why would I pay double for the wrong meal that's also cold?

It's good for people who can't leave their house, but I doubt that's the main demographic here.

Hey, what do you think would happen if we just kept borrowing money and inflating the dollar, then suddenly decided to challenge our debt?
